Biografia

Fondatore della band Family, è da considerarsi un precursore del progressive rock, genere che prenderà piede a partire dagli anni 1970. In seguito allo scioglimento di questa band, egli fonderà gli Streetwalkers, noto supergruppo di quegli anni che lancerà le carriere di John Wetton e Tim Hinkley.

[en] Roger Chapman

Roger Maxwell Chapman (born 8 April 1942 in Leicester), also known as Chappo, is an English rock vocalist.[1] He is best known as a member of the progressive rock band Family, which he joined along with Charlie Whitney, in 1966 and also the rock, R&B band Streetwalkers formed in 1974. His idiosyncratic brand of showmanship when performing and vocal vibrato led him to become a cult figure on the British rock scene. Chapman is claimed to have said that he was trying to sing like both Little Richard and his idol Ray Charles. Since the early 1980s he has spent much of his time in Germany and has made occasional appearances there and elsewhere.
